The Spectacular Crash of G-1
lt's Galactor!
L-look!
It's the Falcon of Sicily!
Destroy every ounce of gunpowder!
Kill, kill, kill, until not a single one is left!
Before this, Secret UN Weapons Storage Facilities
in districts 4, 9, and 13 had already been destroyed by Galactor.
In particular, there was the leader of the special fighter squadron who
emerged from the head of the Iron Beast, the man called "The Falcon of Sicily."
The brutality of his continued attacks against weapons depots
struck fear into the hearts of the UN's troops.
They arrived without a sound and left as quickly as they came.
The member who always came first was the Devil's Wings, the Falcon of Sicily.
Now do you see how powerful we are?!
They're here! We finally meet, Gatchaman!
We've finally got the Falcon of Sicily.
We won't let him get away today! Let's go!
Roger!
Here I come, Gatchaman!
Pull back, Heinrich!
Wh-why, commander?!
We were not ordered to battle Gatchaman!
But this is our chance to take them out!
No! Do you intend on defying Count Egobossler?!
N-no, but...
Those are your orders!
Dammit!
Wait! He's trying to get away!
Damn, we can't see anything now!
That isn't fair, Galactor!
The Falcon of Sicily, Heinrich...
Big Bro, you let him get away again!
Seriously. What kind of Science Ninja Team are we?
Why is he running away without a fight?
Is the Falcon of Sicily doing this just for show?
No, I saw his eyes.
He'll come to fight us for sure!
But if things continue like this, another UN weapons storage facility might be attacked!
I've pulled up which weapons storage facilities are most likely to be attacked. I came up with six.
That makes sense. The UN has countless numbers of secret weapons storage facilities.
Gramps, is there any way you can cut it down to three, or even two?
I need new data if I'm going to narrow things down, but I'll give it another try with what I have.
Everyone!
Chief!
The Falcon of Sicily's name is causing more of a shock than
we predicted to the UN forces that defend the weapons facilities.
He now strikes fear into the soldiers just from his presence alone.
So if we take him down...
That's right. The UN forces' morale will increase, and they'll be able to fight Galactor with more vigor.
Chief! Leave it to me.
I'll take him out.
I pray for your success.
We can't lose any more weapons facilities!
Roger!
Egobossler! Egobossler!
Egobossler! Egobossler! Egobossler!
My fellows! The Falcon of Sicily, Heinrich, is the pride of Galactor!
He is a trueborn hero of the Egobossler Family!
Hooray for the Falcon of Sicily!
Hooray for Heinrich!
He has brought us another glorious victory. Hooray for Heinrich!
He has brought us another glorious victory.
He has destroyed so many secret UN weapon storage facilities,
the soldiers tremble just at his name!
To extol his efforts, I am presenting him with the Egobossler Cross.
Galactor is immortal. Follow his example!
Egobossler! Egobossler!
No! You may not battle the Science Ninja Team!
You have to fulfill your primary mission first!
Why?!
At this rate, as long as I'm stuck attacking weapons facilities, Gatchaman won't be taken down.
I said no, so no!
Sir! Please, give me permission to fight Gatchaman!
Heinrich, I understand your enthusiasm as a young, passionate soldier.
So you'll let me!
Wait a little while.
I won't let anyone else defeat them; I'll leave that for you.
You will be the one to take down Gatchaman.
Understand, Heinrich?
Yes! Excuse me, sir!
Sir!
He might be able to do it.
But Heinrich is the star of all our soldiers.
He will inspire heroism, erode the enemy's morale, and create heroes willing to happily die for me.
Yes, sir!
I'd rather fight him than have this medal!
Colonel! Orders to launch!
Either the 3rd Weapons Storage Facility in Germany, or Denmark's Korshavn Bay!
Gramps! What's their plan of attack?
If we use Option A, they'll attack ten minutes from now.
With Option B, it'll be at 6:21 AM!
Ken!
Gramps, what's the weather there right now?
Sunny in Denmark's Korshavn Bay, and it might snow in Germany.
Let's go to Germany. The snow is better for their sneak attack!
That's strange.
Why didn't it explode?
That's strange. That should've been the gunpowder reserve.
Dammit! Commander, we're surrounded!
What?!
Damn!
Joe!
What, Ken?
I want to fight him one-on-one!
All right. We'll get the small fry out of the way so you can focus.
I might forget that I'm your leader for a moment.
Don't worry about it. Go get him!
Curse you, United Nations, trying to be clever!
They moved their weapons out of here!
We won't let you get away with this!
Go, Heinrich!
Yes, Heinrich! That's good, get them!
The Science Ninja Team! Why are they here?!
There he is! Ken, go!
You're here, Gatchaman!
Can you hear me, Gatchaman?
I've been wanting to fight you!
So have I!
Follow me! We'll fight somewhere where no one can get in our way!
Good!
Heinrich! Why are you leaving the battlefield?! Where are you going?!
I order you to return! Heinrich, return!
Heinrich!
There's one thing I want to ask.
What?
Why are you fighting for Galactor?
That's a stupid question.
I'm part of the Egobossler Family.
I will fight for my family!
That's too bad! You're too good of a pilot to work for them!
To me, Galactor is the real justice in the world!
I was born in Sicily, a city stricken with poverty.
Sometimes tourists looked at us with scorn and threw money at us.
Even when we wanted to work, no one would give Sicilyns jobs.
You have a good look in your eyes.
The Sicilyns' eyes shine like mine.
They'll be great heroes of the Egobossler Family.
I swore loyalty to the Count.
This is my revenge on a world that looked down on the Sicilyns.
And you're a part of that world, Gatchaman!
Let's go, Gatchaman!
All right!
Damn!
Crap, we can't get close at all!
Big Bro, look over there!
An old minefield!
All right, lure them over here!
Now, Jinpei!
Roger!
All right!
You'll pay for this, Gatchaman!
You're pretty good, Gatchaman.
But I'm just getting started!
Gatchaman, I'll give you a little present for fighting with me: my special technique!
Did you see that? My Spinning Tornado Drop!
Spinning Tornado Drop...
What's wrong, Gatchaman?
Damn!
This is it!
Looks like I win, Gatchaman!
Ken!
Big Bro!
Ken!
Gatchaman, down!
Dammit, that bastard!
Stop, Joe!
Don't, don't go after him!
Ken?
No! It can't be!
I won!
Falcon of Sicily, you had such talent, yet you fought for them. Why?
Dead men don't need medals.
It needs a new hero!
Do it.
Sir!
The Falcon of Sicily was defeated.
Ken felt the joy of fighting an amazing opponent
and the despair of the loss of that great opponent's young life.
But he cannot forgive Galactor for terrorizing humanity.
Lift your spirits, Gatchaman!
The hypermatter Neophryte is created by the mining engineer Gordon.
Gordon puts it up for auction for Gatchaman and Kempler.
Gatchaman tries their hardest to persuade Gordon,
and fierce sparks fly between Kempler and our heroes.
Next time on Gatchaman Fighter:
